How can I bake a mesh

[nicodeb]

Hi every one! (again! I'm so harassing!) :p

So, I've searched some tutorials, in Internet, on this site and on YouTube, but I haven't found how can I bake a mesh. With baking, I mean the making of the multiplier.
I use Workshop and Milkshape, but I've also Wings 3D. If baking is possible with Blender I can download it, but my problem is "How can I bake a mesh?" (with blender, milk, wings, one of these...). :!:

Thanks again! ;)

There is a tutorial at Black Pearl Sims on how to bake your mesh in Blender > tutorial (http://www.blackpearlsims.com/showthread.php?40537-Lesson-6a-Textures-The-Multiplier)

Hi everyone! I've another problem. I've made the multiplier of my object, but there is a strange effect, like there was a multiplier on every part of the object. Here is the photo.

How can I fix the problem?

It looks like you have parts you want to have different shadows mapped in the same place on your map. I wrote a tutorial showing how to use the new Blender tools to bake your multiplier in a couple of simple steps. In the thread for that tutorial is some discussion of the issue you appear to be having.

Baking this way is a lot easier than using Blender without the S3 tools. :)
